Squamous cell carcinoma of the distal urethra in a patient with congenital hypospadias.

A previously well 43-yr-old man with congenital hypospadias presented with a fungating lesion of 2 mths duration and surrounding the ventral urethral opening. After biopsy showed this to be a squamous cell carcinoma, a definitive procedure of partial penile amputation and urethroplasty was performed. This is believed to be the first reported case of squamous cell carcinoma of the distal urethra in conjunction with hypospadias.
